Good, I'm glad they've been indicted. They're a crooked outfit. A scm.
The charge? Fraud.
The SPLC did good work at the beginning of its existence. They were a bunch of lawyers who set out to sue the Ku Klux Klan to oblivion. They pretty much succeeded in that.
So much so, that they ran out of "White Extremists" to go after. The Klan is pretty much non-existent.
So the SPLC helped to create and fund White Supremacist groups. That's the charge. And that's how Joe Biden was able to say, falsely, that "white supremacism is the biggest terrorist threat to America".
I've written about the SPLC for over ten years. They went after two brave ex-Muslims in Maajid Nawaz and Ayaan Hirsi Ali. That was most unfair and ridiculous. But just a small part of the big pic of how they went about fund raising, by funding extremist groups and then pointing to them: "See the challenge we've got! Money please!"
Here's some of my posts, going back over ten years. I've been leery about this outfit for ages. While, of course, the mainstream media is painting this a just the Trump admin going after them for "political reasons". What happened to "no one is above the law"?
Here are the guys from the Ruthless Podcast talking about it yesterday
And the ALL-IN podcast at 1:00:32. SPLC "are basically running a grift", David Sacks.
